Olfactory mucosa histological findings in laryngectomees
European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2003After total laryngectomy, the patients often report immediate and marked olfactory deficit. The aim of this study was to determine whether hyposmia in laryngectomees reflects olfactory epithelial damage. Ten laryngectomized patients and ten rhinologically normal subjects were subjected to olfactory testing, after which histological examination of ...

New structure, the ?olfactory pit,? in human olfactory mucosa
The Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1997A whole-mount immunocytochemical method was devised to study the olfactory receptor neurons on the surface of the human olfactory mucosal sheet. Antibodies to neuron-specific tubulin and/or microtubule-associated protein 5 and phosphorylated neurofilament protein were used.

Olfactory mucosa/air partitioning of odorants
Brain Research, 1987The present study evaluates the contribution of the receptor cell compartment to the total mucosal odorant uptake. Using radioactive odorants, partition coefficients for normal bullfrog olfactory mucosa were compared to the partition coefficients from mucosa in which the receptor cells had been removed by cutting one of the olfactory nerves and ...

Anatomy of the olfactory mucosa
2019The classic notion that humans are microsmatic animals was born from comparative anatomy studies showing the reduction in the size of both the olfactory bulbs and the limbic brain relative to the whole brain. However, the human olfactory system contains a number of neurons comparable to that of most other mammals, and humans have exquisite olfactory ...

Olfactory Mucosa of Patients with Olfactory Disturbance following Head Trauma
Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1994The olfactory mucosa in 7 patients with olfactory disturbance following head trauma were sampled for biopsy with special biopsy forceps and examined by immunohistochemical staining with anti—neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and S-100 protein (S-100) antibodies.

Immunopathology of olfactory mucosa following injury to the olfactory bulb
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1990AbstractRemoval of the olfactory bulb was performed on rats in an attempt to elucidate the processes of olfactory dysfunction following head injury. Degeneration and regeneration of the olfactory mucosa were examined, histopathologically and immunohistochemically. We used antisera to olfactory marker protein (OMP) and neuron specific enolase (NSE) as a

Immunohistochemical Examination of Olfactory Mucosa in Patients with Olfactory Disturbance
Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1990The olfactory mucosa was examined by immunohistochemistry in patients with olfactory disturbance: anosmia due to choanal atresia and chronic sinusitis, early-stage common cold, late-stage common cold, and head trauma. The results indicate that the olfactory mucosa of patients with olfactory disturbance shows specific kinds of immunoreactive patterns ...

Ultrastructure of mouse olfactory mucosa
American Journal of Anatomy, 1967AbstractThe fine structure of the olfactory mucosa has been investigated with particular reference to those aspects of the morphology which may be significant in chemoreception. Morphology of the supporting cells of the epithelium indicate that they function in mucus production or regulation.

Cell dynamics in the olfactory mucosa
Tissue and Cell, 1973Abstract By means of ultrastructural and autoradiographic observations from the olfactory mucosa of frog, it has been shown that olfactory receptor neurons as well as supporting cells are continuously replaced during the adult life of the animal. The severing of the olfactory nerve in adult frogs results in rapid degeneration of all mature olfactory ...

Mineralocorticoid Receptors in the Mammalian Olfactory Mucosa
Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1999Mineralocorticoid hormones regulate secretion and absorption in a wide variety of epithelial tissues, although specific mechanisms in the olfactory mucosa are currently unknown. Utilizing reverse transcription—polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis, we have demonstrated the expression of mineralocorticoid (type I) receptor messenger RNA in the ...
